Numerical weather prediction (NWP) now provides major guidance in our daily weather forecast. The accuracy of NWP models has improved steadily since the first successful experiment made by Charney, Fj!rtoft and von Neuman (1950). During the past 50 years, a large number of technical papers
Beyond bags of features: Spatial pyramid matching for recognizing natural scene categories
- In CVPR
"... This paper presents a method for recognizing scene categories based on approximate global geometric correspondence. This technique works by partitioning the image into increasingly fine sub-regions and computing histograms of local features found inside each sub-region. The resulting “spatial pyrami ..."

and achieves high accuracy on a large database of fifteen natural scene categories. The spatial pyramid framework also offers insights into the success of several recently proposed image descriptions, including Torralba’s “gist ” and Lowe’s SIFT descriptors. 1.
NewsWeeder: Learning to Filter Netnews
- in Proceedings of the 12th International Machine Learning Conference (ML95
, 1995
"... A significant problem in many information filtering systems is the dependence on the user for the creation and maintenance of a user profile, which describes the user's interests. NewsWeeder is a netnews-filtering system that addresses this problem by letting the user rate his or her interest l ..."

"... We present an object recognition system based on the Dynamic Link Architecture, which is an extension to classical Artificial Neural Networks. The Dynamic Link Architecture ex-ploits correlations in the fine-scale temporal structure of cellular signals in order to group neurons dynamically into hig ..."

are represented by sparse graphs, whose vertices are labeled by a multi-resolution description in terms of a local power spectrum, and whose edges are labeled by geometrical distance vectors. Object recognition can be formulated as elastic graph matching, which is performed here by stochastic optimization of a
Estimation of probabilities from sparse data for the language model component of a speech recognizer
- IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing
, 1987
"... Abstract-The description of a novel type of rn-gram language model is given. The model offers, via a nonlinear recursive procedure, a com-putation and space efficient solution to the problem of estimating prob-abilities from sparse data. This solution compares favorably to other proposed methods. Wh ..."

A framework for information systems architecture.
- IBM Syst. J.,
, 1987
"... With increasing size and complexity of the implementations of information systems, it is necessary to use some logical construct (or architecture) for defining and controlling the interfaces and the integration of all of the components of the system. This paper defines information systems architect ..."

Also, some preliminary conclusions about the implications of the resultant descriptive framework
Why Johnny can’t encrypt: A usability evaluation of PGP 5.0
, 1999
"... User errors cause or contribute to most computer security failures, yet user interfaces for security still tend to be clumsy, confusing, or near-nonexistent. Is this simply due to a failure to apply standard user interface design techniques to security? We argue that, on the contrary, effective secu ..."

Our case study used a cognitive walkthrough analysis together with a laboratory user test to evaluate whether PGP 5.0 can be successfully used by cryptography novices to achieve effective electronic mail security. The analysis found a number of user interface design flaws that may
Model Checking for Programming Languages using VeriSoft
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 24TH ACM SYMPOSIUM ON PRINCIPLES OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
, 1997
"... Verification by state-space exploration, also often referred to as "model checking", is an effective method for analyzing the correctness of concurrent reactive systems (e.g., communication protocols). Unfortunately, existing model-checking techniques are restricted to the verification of ..."

Tableau Algorithms for Description Logics
- STUDIA LOGICA
, 2000
"... Description logics are a family of knowledge representation formalisms that are descended from semantic networks and frames via the system Kl-one. During the last decade, it has been shown that the important reasoning problems (like subsumption and satisfiability) in a great variety of descriptio ..."

This is not very surprising since description logics have turned out to be closely related to propositional modal logics and logics of programs (such as propositional dynamic logic), for which tableau procedures have been quite successful
